Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

everyone picked pats mostly.

Shoulda gone Iggles cos then if the team covers the spread, you have more equity in the freeroll tourney (I'm assuming others outwith 2+2 also mainly picked pats at paradise)

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

I picked EAGLES at Paradise and PATRIOTS at PokerRoom so I got a double win:

Extra $100 bonus on PokerRoom and the freeroll on Paradise.

Me too

me three

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

With all the Paradise haters I'm absolutely shocked that so many people did the bonus compared to those that didn't. I still like Paradise and did it of course.

But there?s more! Should the team that you choose win the SuperBowl by the spread listed below, you?ll win a seat into a special private tournament set to take place on Monday, February 7th where you could win cash and seats to the Paradise Masters $1 Million main event!

doesn't say the time, i hope its not one of those masters freerolls.

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

picked both. I got the eagles, my gf got the pats. Just so that one of us would get the tourny entry

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

Well this is what I did too but only by accident really not by design. But I thought you only got to play in a freeroll on paradise if your team won. And by the sounds of it the Eagles lost. So what tournament are all you smug and happy people reckoning on playing at paradise then?

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

Ahh the smugness of 6.5

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

Am I going to get an email on this or something because I won, what time are these freeroll things usally at, 7 or 8pm? With my luck it will be during class.

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

You get into the freeroll if your team beat the spread, not won the game.

Also ditto, although I've yet to see anything on either site (or in email) about the added bonus / freeroll. Anyone have any info? I already cleared the first Poker Room bonus (don't ask [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]), so the bonus would show up on my account page if it had been awarded yet. I'm more concerned with hearing about the Paradise one right now because I think the freeroll is supposed to be tomorrow, and I don't want to sleep through it.

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

It might have a lot of sit outs, you're not the first person who missed the +6.5 bit.

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

I picked the Eagles but haven't gotten any email notification, or seen anything about the freeroll on the Paradise client. Does anyone know if you have to have completed the raked hands requirement to be eligible for the freeroll? I didn't see anything about that in the T&C.

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

I just got the email- tonight 8pm, $7500 added plus top 10 win a seat to the masters.

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

Yes...I got the e-mail as well.

I took the Eagles...not because I thought more people would take NE...but just because I thought the value in this game was with PHI.

I won a few bucks betting the Eagles at +7 as well.
I just didn't think NE -7 was a very good bet for this game.

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

I thought the line was large as well, but I held off on any real bets (good thing too as I fell in love with the ML)

Hit the trifecta though, Phi on Paradise, NE on pokerroom, and a very important $5 from my dad.

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

Its currently listed under the tournaments as EAGLES. I believe starting time is 20:00 EST.

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

1700 players are in this.

Just roughly assuming that around 2000 picked the Pats that means that 3500-4000 players took advantage of the reload.

Interesting...because I kind of wondered how many people jump on these reload opportunities and how many people just don't bother with them.


I suspect that out of 1700 players registered for the freeroll we get at least 700 no-shows.
I might be one of them...depends on what I've got going on tonight.

Not exactly a huge prize-pool...but for free I guess I'm not complaining.
Top 10 get that entry to the Masters thing...which I think is a $600 entry.

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

Email from Paradise:

Congratulations to all of you who chose the Eagles to win at +6 1/2.

While the Patriots may have won 24-21, they did NOT cover the +6 1/2 point spread.

As a result, you have been registered into tonight's private tournament that's set to start at 8pm EST. The name of the tournament will be EAGLES. Simply login to your account prior to 8pm EST and you will be automatically taken to your table once seating begins.

Paradise Poker has added $7,500 to the prize pool and will award the Top 10 players a seat into the Paradise Masters $1,000,000 tournament that's set to take place Sunday, March 6th at 3pm EST.

Good luck!

I picked Eagles because I know shlt about american football, and "patriot" has a bad ring to it.

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

I did this as well. I figured the Pats would win but I had a pretty good inkling it would be close and went with the Eagles on Paradise. Should be an interesting tourney.

Re: Paradise Bonus - Who did you pick?
 

I didn't know you had to just cover the spread.
I thought the pats were gonna win (and put money down on it as well).
Then when I got the email saying I was entered into this nice free tourney it was quite the surprise for me.
